Has anyone read the transcripts that were released recently about preparations for Hurricane Katrina. I distinctly remember Bush saying they did not anticipate the levees breaching, and these transcripts show not only did he know he was also informed about grave concerns about 1) the size/impact of the hurricane 2) the number of people still in New Orleans (in hospitals and prisons), 3) whether the astrodome was adequate, 4) and whether mortuary services were up for the job!
I get the feeling reading these the president he either had misplaced confidence in the readiness of the federal system to help (though doesn''t seem much was really one in preparation before hand), or (to tell you the truth)
he just didn''t care. Does anyone else find this a little upsetting?
